Mike Tyson Dana White Shark

Mike Tyson shares an incident when he was returning to fight and how UFC president Dana White tried and helped him.

Over the years  Mike Tyson and Dana White have become good friends and have shared a lot of time together. As a part of friendship Dana even declined a Multi- Million dollar deals with Hulu Series “Mike”. Since Mike in a lot of interviews have shared that the show has not portraited his childhood correctly.

Unfortunately, “Iron Mike” no longer has ownership of his life rights and is therefore unable to participate at this time.

That was never an option since we were unable to speak with him because his life rights had already been stolen. Steven Rogers, the executive producer, earlier this week told reporters.

“I would hope that he would reconsider his perspective if he watched it. I personally don’t like to rely on just one source as a writer or storyteller. Yeah I enjoy conducting research, gathering many viewpoints, and then weaving a narrative around it all. I dislike being dependent on a single individual.
